Audio Horizons TP 2.0 Preamplifier

Ouch, Rx8man! I hope the buyer is being understanding. It's amazing how much damage can be done by the Fedex and UPS guys. I am going to file a claim with fedex on my preamp, but don't know if they'll pay. I've read some nightmare claim stories here in these threads. I hope UPS will rectify the problem for you and the new owner of your VAC monos.

Hi Grannyring,

Got an update on your new preamp upgrade? Are you still as enthusiastic as after the 30 hour mark?

Sherod, I have been busy at work and have only added another 10 or so hours of listening and burn in. Still the very same reaction and loving the improvements.

Will have more time this weekend. I will let it play 24/7 again starting Friday night.

I think yours is due back today? Let me know your thoughts please.

I would like to know all the "new" changes Joseph performed on my unit. I see Victor says they have some new modifications now and it seems he will make an announcement.
Interesting........

Bill,
Mt preamp isn't due to arrive until Mon. or Tues. Once I get it hooked up and playing for a day or so, I'll give everyone my impressions. I am curious to see what announcement Victor has to make regarding the upgrades. He and Joseph are at the RMAF now in Denver.

Well I have some additional comments on my updated TP2.0 preamp.This unit is more revealing then ever of the source component and any changes one would make in cabling.

I use a Music Metre Fidelus digital cable because in the past it has outperformed my AH Transparency digital cable in my system. This is no longer true.

The AH digital cable now sounds better in my system. My prior review was based on the Fidelus cable. With the AH digital cable my sytem has all of the positive attributes I pointed out in my initial review. All the same improvements, but there is more now!!

More weight and dimension to the sound. More tube warmth is coming through without any loss of detail or transparency.
Music has more body and texture. My goodness all of this mated with the purity on this preamp. Great combo folks!
The stage is even larger with greatly improved front to back depth. Bass has more power and impact yet!! Wow!!!!

I am so pleased with the improvements.

The performance of this preamp in one's system will always be outstanding. However understand this, I have found the updated 2.0 more revealing of other components ahead of it.
Change a cable and BAM it may float your boat even more! It did for me.
